Is there a function that can modify the existing prBoundary Object in layout??

Hi tried to push new co-ordinates for its bBox, but doing that it will work for normal layers and same thing is not working for "objects" in my case its prBoundary object.

I have to do it for more than 1000 layouts.

Regards

    Hi Abhijith,

    Two things - first, it's a polygon rather than a rectangle, so you need to specify a list of points rather than a bBox (so four points for a rectangular boundary), and secondly you can't do it via ~>points. Instead  you need to use the dbSetBoundaryEdge function to update the boundary:

    dbSetBoundaryEdge(cv~>prBoundary list(0:0 70:0 70:90 0:90))

    Regards,

    Andrew.
